T3 turbo

[TTT]

Does anyone know why no-one uses a T3 from an FJ20DET or RB30ET as an upgrade for their R32 GTST or R33 GTST?

Since they are T3's, wouldn't they fit?

Don't they have steel exhaust blades?

Are they not bigger than the standard turbo's that the skylines get?

Just curious cause I never see these mentioned in turbo upgrades..

Thanks.

hi

I dont think you'll be able to bolt on a t3 from an RB30et, this is because the exhaust manifolds are different. The rb30et has the turbo mounted underneath the manifold whereas the rb20 and rb25's are mounted on more of an angle. I dont know if it is an easy fix, but it will definately stop you from just bolting it up and driving. There may be other probs as well, but i'm not sure what they'd be.

I would have thought that with a T3 flange they would have bolted to the standard manifold?

The turbo on a FJ is a T3 and should bolt to the stock manifold, they have different water and oil fitting i think. They are steel whees and are a a little bigger than a 32 one.

I know a DR30 running 12psi and makes 160rwkw.
